Overall Band for Essay Writing : 7.0Sample Essay Writing:ANIMALS SHOULD HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS AS HUMANS. ALSO, WHILE OTHERS ARGUE THAT HUMANS MUST EMPLOY ANIMALS.ALSO, TO SATISFY THEIR VARIOUS NEEDS INCLUDING USES OF FOOD AND RESEARCH.DISCUSS BOTH VIEWS AND GIVE YOUR OPINION.The sentiments in favour of and against animal usage for various human needs have always remained in the forefronts of discussion. This write up will attempt to debate both views, thereby arriving at a conclusion.From time immemorial, early man has been using animals. Especially employing them to satisfy his basic needs of food, clothing, hunting, transportation etc. While cattle rearing for food and diary needs become the next best things known to man. But, after agriculture, he started domesticating animals such as dog for security, donkeys and bulls . So, as beasts of burden, horses and elephants as transportation vehicles etc. As time progressed, man found several other avenues wherein animals could partner with him for progression . Specifically, of the human race such as research, medicine etc. However, some sections of the society are against the usage of animals for any need, whatsoever. For instance the PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals) activists. They hold nationwide protests to create sentiments in favor of animals.The famous Salman Khan’s black buck case booked the actor for harming endangered species. Similarly, Jallikatu protests banned bull race in Tamil Nadu. Also, with the objective of eliminating or minimizing cruelty on bulls. I personally feel that animals are very much a part and parcel of the human civilization . Also mankind will be incomplete without their association, support, and contribution. Mankind should be benefited by them. But, however, the right checks and balances should be in place to ensure prevention of their exploitation.
